Adding not so common audio formats to audioserve will not be so different. We'll just need to add mime types (and extensions), that are recognized as audio.
Also we will need to enforce mandatory transcoding for such formats.
Anything, which is supported by ffmpeg can be considered.

If you've sorted that much out, you could probably make the PR, right?
Might even be able to take in funds for doing so.
Being entirely selfish, I do wish audio servers would focus a bit more on what kind of audio they can serve up. Something with robust support for tracker (mod, s3m, xm, it, mtm, 669, etc), chip (most old 8-bit PCs), and game music formats (SNES, Genesis/MD, etc.) for old systems would be amazing and something I've long looked for as it would instantly open up millions of songs without requiring several terabytes of storage. Many libraries like FFmpeg support many of those internally, but software build on those libraries simply don't expose it.
